Who here plays the ever so buggy Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown?

Not a bad game but I wish they would just fix their shitty servers.

Iā€™ll probably pick it up when the price inevitably goes down as itā€™s not had the greatest of releases despite all the hype

I used to really like TDU on the 360

No doubt it will be on sale soon. Returns have sky rocketed. The game itself is very very good.

I didnā€™t know that was even out

I really like TDU back in 2006 and TDU2

Out, yep.

Working out fully, nope

I have TDU2 on disc somewhere, I remember it being hella dodgy with the server connection. I had shitty internet at the time

(28) Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown - Before You Buy - YouTube

Seems a little underwhelming compared to the first 2 games

Online onlyā€¦ We all know that Online Only games like Horizon Zero Dawn are thriving

Surprised it took em so long.

Just out of interest, what made you decide to get the PS5 Pro?

I always tend to opt for fidelity over performance mode, but do notice the lower frame rates on my 4k display. The PS5 Pro should be able to handle 4k@60fps consistently.

Furthermore, the additional 1TB of storage (2TB in total) will be useful, as Iā€™m running low on space and was planning to add some NVMe to my current PS5 anyway.

Also, I already have a disc drive in my current PS5, which is swappable to the Pro, and a stand already, which is also compatible with the Pro.

Although the cost is Ā£699.99, I can sell my current PS5 for Ā£260 to MusicMagpie, making the total cost of upgrade Ā£439.99. Itā€™s hardly going to break the bank and Iā€™ll enjoy it.

That and I have zero interest in PC gaming. Iā€™ve been there and done that, I prefer the simplicity of gaming consoles, particularly PS.

Value is very subjective, of course. I understand the negative comments online over the price, I just donā€™t necessarily feel the same.

Hope this explains my decision :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks for the reply! Itā€™s good to see that it will make you happy. Thatā€™s the main thing really. Not for me, but hope others like yourself have a really good time with it :grinning:

I think that is optimistic to say the least but will wait for reviews

They claim it will but I suspect it will involve the use of the new upscaling hardware they have added to the GPU.

There will be some trickery involved but thatā€™s fine, as long as I end up with decent fidelity and a smoother frame rate.

As you say, the reviews should be interesting.

Just got gamepass for 3 months, thought Sifu was another game I had in mind but I was wrong.

Gonna give Call of Duty a go.

Any others youā€™d recommend?

What genres are you into? All about the action or do you also enjoy the story?
